Why would all of my fictional crushes absolutely hate me if they met me. Like I would be so psyched and they would just be like “get this weird autistic child away from me please”
Applying for jobs is a hell designed specifically to torment autistic people. Here is a well-paying task which you know in your heart and soul if they just gave you a desk and left you alone and allowed you to do it you would sit there and be more focused and enthusiastic and excellent at it than anyone else in the building. However, before they allow you to perform the task, you must pass through 3-4 opaque social crucibles where you must wear uncomfortable clothes and make eye contact while everyone expects you to lie, but not too much (no one is ever clear exactly how much lying is expected, “over” honesty is however penalized). You are being judged almost entirely on how well you understand these very specific and unclear rules that no one has explained. None of this has anything to do with your ability to perform the desired task.
guys guys guys, you know what i really wanna read rn? who am i kidding of course you do
Unit Chief Spencer Reid being perpetually confused by the new Gen Z agent, like he's so oblivious to pop-culture i think it'd be hilarious to see him try and understand the new agent.
it doesn't even have to be romantic or smth i think it'd just be funny.
Imagine getting Spencer to watch Bridgerton with you. At first he’s reluctant, but you watch Doctor Who with him so he decides to suck it and gets really involved. The modern music confuses him though, and he’ll rattle off a list of more appropriate classical pieces. The first steamy scene has him blushing and looking at you like “oh this is regency p*rn.” But he ends up reading all the novels in the end. He’s very excited for season 3 with Colin and Penelope, even though it should’ve been Benedict’s season but it’s fiiiine. He even organized a little tea party watch party for the two of you.
Emily and Pen absolutely teased him about it when they found out but now they bring him in to discuss the episodes.
